Taylor Swift and Lorde were photographed gal-paling around New York this weekend, enjoying the spring weather by posing for photos and probably going to Serendipity 3 for oversize sundaes and giggles.
This is their third highly publicized friendship outing, which means we can no longer ignore the age difference: Lorde is 17. Taylor is 23. That’s the equivalent of a high-school junior hanging out with a recent college graduate. But even if Lorde has the soul of an 80-year-old woman (or might actually be 80, according to Lorde Truthers) she and Taylor didn’t watch the same classic Nickelodeon shows. If Lorde doesn’t get a Donkey Lips reference, how is this thing supposed to last?
